Democracy Now! "Instrument of Vengeance": Mehdi Hasan on How Trump & Kash Patel Could Weaponize FBI against Critics

Dec 2, 2024 | We speak with journalist Mehdi Hasan, founder and editor-in-chief of _Zeteo_, about the incoming U.S. administration and President-elect Donald Trump's picks for key roles, including lawyer Kash Patel to lead the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Trump reportedly considered Patel for FBI deputy director during his first term but dropped the idea after pushback from within his own administration. Hasan describes Patel as a "toady" whose threats against political opponents and journalists should be disqualifying, but that he aligns with Trump's goals of further politicizing the FBI. "He wants to use it as an instrument of vengeance."

Americans and their use of that disgusting word “freakin”! What they mean, of course, is f*****g! Both words are typical of American English. Nobody in his right mind would ever accuse Americans of being ‘refined’. That was the least important part of my criticism, of course. The important part is that American politics, which is both disgusting and corrupt, is coming over here. Keep American politics over there, across the Pond, where it belongs! – © Mark Alecander

Is Donald Trump a Fascist Threat to America? Mehdi and Steve Schmidt Discuss

Oct 29, 2024 | “In what world do you see a Donald Trump leaving office? Just going, ‘Yeah, I’m done. See you later, people.’ That he doesn't try and stay on, that he doesn't try and install a family member or a corrupt acolyte. This idea that there will be free and fair elections in 2028 — after four more years of Republican Trump rule — is delusional.”

Mehdi and Steve Schmidt, veteran Republican strategist and ardent ‘Never Trumper,’ talk Donald Trump and his 2024 campaign — and they agree that American democracy is at existential risk from a fascist movement led by the former president. Watch the full discussion on why even House Republicans fear a second Trump term, and why the media is turning a blind eye to fascism – again – when it comes to Trump.

Blowback: How Israel Helped Create Hamas

Feb 20, 2018 | Did you also know that Hamas — which is an Arabic acronym for “Islamic Resistance Movement” — would probably not exist today were it not for the Jewish state? That the Israelis helped turn a bunch of fringe Palestinian Islamists in the late 1970s into one of the world’s most notorious militant groups? That Hamas is blowback?

Former Israeli official Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, who was the Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s, told a New York Times reporter that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat. Avner Cohen, a former Israeli religious affairs official who worked in Gaza for more than two decades, told the Wall Street Journal in 2009 that Hamas is “Israel’s creation.” Hamas was the result of this, as Mehdi Hasan explains. First, the Israelis helped build up a militant strain of Palestinian political Islam, in the form of Hamas and its Muslim Brotherhood precursors; then, the Israelis switched tack and tried to bomb, besiege, and blockade it out of existence.

Richard Dawkins on Religion

May 16, 2013 • An interview with renowned atheist Richard Dawkins on whether religion is a force for good or evil.

Fanaticism, fundamentalism, superstition and ignorance. Religion is getting a bad press these days. Much of the conflict in the world, from the Middle East to Nigeria and Myanmar, is often blamed on religion.

But how are things from a different perspective? Defenders of religion claim Adolf Hitler was an atheist. Communism under Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot or Mao Zedong banned religion, but also massacred millions. And science brought incredible and amazing advances, but also pollution and the atomic bomb.

A critic of religious dogmatism, Professor Richard Dawkins revolutionised genetics in 1976 with the publication of The Selfish Gene, which explained how evolution takes place at the genetic level. He has since written 12 more bestsellers, including The God Delusion which sold millions of copies, was translated into more than 30 languages, and catapulted him to the position of the world's foremost atheist.

Mehdi Hasan interviews evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins at the Oxford Union and asks: Is religion a force for good or evil? Can it co-exist with science? Is science the new religion? And why if god does not exist, is religion so persistent?
